NetworkOcean
Ocean data centers powered by floating solar
NetworkOcean is a company developing data centers located in the ocean, powered by large floating solar arrays at sea. The site states that it is the first company to run AI customer workloads from the ocean off-grid, powered by solar. The stated problem is the constraint on power for new compute capacity, with floating solar presented as a way to deploy power and compute more quickly than gas turbines, nuclear, or reciprocating engines.
The company describes ocean data centers as power-efficient infrastructure using seawater cooling, with a stated increase in compute per watt compared with conventional cooling. Its roadmap includes OASIS-00, a 20 kW array intended to power an H100 from the ocean in 2026, a 1 MW array in 2027, and a stated capability to deploy 1 GW per week of solar by 2030. The site links to a whitepaper and a launch video, and lists open roles for mechanical and electrical engineers.
NetworkOcean is aimed at organizations seeking new power and compute capacity, including AI workloads, and at engineers interested in building ocean-based infrastructure. The site does not describe a free plan, trial, editions, or seat-based or usage-based packaging.
